Pros

There really isn't a pro... maybe the free gym but that's about it...once you get in there and see the lay of the land you realize after 4-6 weeks that this place is a dead end and you are herded into work at 8am EXACTLY like cattle and literally people run out of work at 5:00:01pm feeling like they need a drink.

Cons

Management is an absolute joke. The CEO knows the company is suicidal he just doesn't care because he is making money. The sales department is more like a sweat shop and the Premiere team is tasked with more work than they can handle. People often lie about how much they are making to get the newer guys thinking they too can make the same amount of money. There is no business left for salesman...ZERO you will make the base your first year maybe bump up a few grand here or there but that is if the other reps do not steal your leads. We can't compete with the big names like Verizon or AT&T but don't tell that to the managers or your fired...basically don't tell them anything or your fired also don't ask how to do the job because god forbid you make one of the managers get off of ESPN.com for a second...

Pros

Free parking, Cafeteria workers are nice. A diet-friendly meal is available daily. The phones work.

Cons

Senior management belittles employees. Objectives never defined. Salaried Professionals who often work late into the night are docked if three minutes late arriving to work in the morning. Emphasis is on selling passé technology. Extermely high employee churn, and low morale.

Pros

Going through a Temp Agency, they will very likely hire you. Short Temp period (3 months) before going permanent.

Cons

management communication with the lower ranks is abysmal. They will expect you to be able to work miracles and likely penalize you when you fail to live up to their fantastic requirements.
